Vandals target lagoon regulator locks again

Vandals have broken locks off a regulator at the Ramco Lagoon for the third time, allowing carp and debris into the lagoon.

Karen Bishop from the Riverland West Local Action Planning Group says the locks were this time bashed off the gates, after boltcutters were used in previous attacks.

She says it is extremely frustrating and no-one has been caught.

"Hopefully if there are any concerned locals out there who do see something that they don't think is right they will contact us here in the office, but as far as security measures go we're actually now in the process of purchasing yet more locks which we hope will now be tamper-proof, we've had to go the extra mile and pay more for them but ... we're hoping that that will now stop the problem," she said.
